OSPAR List of Threatened and/or Declining Species and Habitats

OSPAR List of Threatened and/or Declining Species and Habitats: The OSPAR Biological Diversity and Ecosystems Strategy sets out that the OSPAR Commission will assess which species and habitats need to be protected. This OSPAR List of Threatened and/or Declining Species and Habitats has been developed to fulfil this commitment. It is based upon nominations by Contracting Parties and observers to the Commission of species and habitats that they consider to be priorities for protection. http://www.ospar.org/work-areas/bdc/species-habitats/list-of-threatened-declining-species-habitats
